As I have done on Rennlist, where this has been a hot topic, I ask that no one guess in public as to what this might be or how it works. At the present time FOUR people know what I have done and all of them are under this roof.

Feel free to PM me a guess, and if you get it right and do not mention it in public I will give up to 10 people a free unit of the technology (first come first served) when the units are released in late July..

I have not and will not reply to anyone with a specific answer as to whether they were right, wrong or close, all the guesses get the same response.

Please respect what we have put into this and the fact that we must protect this technology at all costs, because no one else knows as much about these failures as we do and that sheer experience is what has led to this development.

As far as disclaimers go, don't be surprised if the units that come from us have a 200% money back guarantee that could be applied toward an IMS retrofit procedure or turnkey FSI engine. Nothing is in stone yet, but this development IS this good. We already know that it works. I will be forcing an engine to fail very soon to prove it on video. Thats a perfectly good engine in my own car.

As requested, sent you a PM with my guess.

PM sent with guess from a few weeks ago and a new system!

Jake could have said "I can tell ya, but then I'll have to kill ya"!!!!

Lookin' forward to the July-august release of the product and theory. My after-market warranty will be expiring soon after that and I want to be able to sleep at night, so Jake's product should be just in time......... (Thanks Jake)

Jake,
Please describe the "procedure" of forcing an engine to fail. I want to be sure I never accidently do it.

The procedure for forcing an engine failure is to extract a perfectly good IMSR bearing from an engine and replace it with a bearing that is at stage II failure.. I have several of these that I can choose from that were extracted from engines that we have saved recently.

Then drive the car until the engine breaks... While my technology is employed to forecast the big moment..

I sacrifice good parts all the time and this won't be the first time I have blown up a 6,000+ dollar engine on purpose, for the sake of science and development.

Jake,

Are you planning on using an engine that a customer had in their car that you recently replaced with one of your engines, or are you building an engine from a randomly sourced core with parts you have on hand, or are you building and engine using perfect parts, and the failed IMS bearing will be the only faulty part in the entire engine?
